To reconstruct a knee that has developed osteoarthritis, a surgeon must reduce the damaged bone wedge at the end of the femur, above and below the knee. During this procedure, bone and cartilage are removed from underneath the kneecap with an oscillating saw, while preserving the outer layer of cartilage on the outside of your thighbone.
A metal plate is then attached to the top of bony pedicle and connected with screws on either side to hold it in place. Finally, the soft tissue around your knee is closed with sutures made from absorbable materials.
